COVID-19 BRIEFING/July 6, 2020
STATE FAIR
CANCELLED
Governor Looks Ahead
To Fall School Opening
Here are highlights of today's COVID-19 briefing by Governor Cuomo:
• The New York State Fair is canceled this year out of an abundance of caution. While disappointing for many reasons, the risk is too high to hold the Fair this summer.
• The State is planning for the fall school year. The New York State Department of Health, in consultation with the Reimagine Education Advisory Council and others, is finalizing guidance on the possible reopening of schools in September. Every school district throughout the State has been directed to develop reopening plans. At the moment, no decisions have been made on whether schools are reopening in the fall. We will follow the data, and make a decision on the data.
